                     NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  MAY 31, 1999


1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Hard Rock Hotel, Inc.
     (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
     accounting principles for interim financial information and with
     instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly,
     they do not include all information and footnotes required by generally
     accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the
     opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring
     adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been
     included. Operating results for the three-month and six-month periods ended
     May 31, 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
     expected for the year ending November 30, 1999. The unaudited interim
     financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with
     the audited financial statements and footnotes for the year ended November
     30, 1998.

2.   THE EXPANDED FACILITY

     In connection with the expansion of the Company's facilities, the  Company
     incurred approximately $100.0 million of capital expenditures through
     May 31, 1999. The Company completed the expansion, and the expanded
     facilities opened in May 1999. Capitalized interest of approximately
     $3.1 million is included in this amount.

3.   LONG TERM DEBT

     At May 31, 1999, the Company had $120.0 million outstanding in Senior
     Subordinated Notes and $65.5 million outstanding on a $77.0 million
     revolving credit line, which line was increased from $67.0 million at
     February 28, 1999. Borrowings against the line of credit may require
     repayments beginning in February 2000.

4.   PRE-OPENING EXPENSES

     The Company incurred $4.5 million in pre-opening expenses associated
     with the expansion. The Company wrote these charges off when the
     facility opened in May 1999.

                ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in
its entirety by, the company's financial statements, including the notes
thereto, and the other financial information appearing elsewhere herein and by
the audited financial statements and footnotes for the year ended November 30,
1998, which may be obtained upon request from the company.

OVERVIEW

Hard Rock Hotel, Inc.'s (the "Company") sole business is the operation of the
Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada (the "Resort"), which commenced
operations on March 9, 1995.

During the month of May 1999, the Company completed construction on a $100
million expansion of the Resort (the "Expansion"). The Expansion included 318
additional rooms, 4 new restaurants, 6,000 square feet of ballroom/banquet
facilities, new retail space, an 8,000 square foot spa/salon/fitness center and
a significantly enlarged swimming pool area ("Beach Club") featuring, among
other things, swim-up blackjack. Although the Company attempted to minimize
disruption caused by the Expansion, management believes net revenues and
operating income for the second quarter of fiscal year 1999 were negatively
affected by the Expansion, resulting in lower results than the Company achieved
for the same period in fiscal year 1998.

YEAR 2000 ISSUES

The "Year 2000 Issue" is the result of computer programs being designed using
two digits rather than four to define the applicable year. Any of the Company's
computer programs or hardware that are date sensitive may recognize a date using
"00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in a system
failure or miscalculations causing disruptions of operations, including among
other things a temporary inability to process transactions.

         STATE OF READINESS

As part of the buyout of Harveys Casino Resorts' 40% share of the Company, in
October 1997, the Company was required to or did replace most of its hardware
and software including the three most critical systems:

     -    the property management system which is used in the hotel to check
          guests in and out,
     -    the casino system which is used to control and account for table
          games, slots and the casino cage, and
     -    the back office systems used for accounting, payroll and inventory
          control.

During this process, management ensured all the purchased hardware and software
related to these systems will not suffer Year 2000 Issue related malfunctions.

The Company has verified that its remaining information technology systems and
other relevant systems will function properly during and after the year 2000 by:

     -    identifying all systems or equipment potentially impacted by the Year
          2000,
     -    testing/certifying those systems' ability to operate in a post-1999
          environment and
     -    reprograming or replacing systems or equipment that might have
          malfunctioned due to the Year 2000 Issue.

The Company inventoried substantially all of its information technology systems
and other relevant systems. The results of this process indicate that the year
2000 should not materially affect the Company's information technology systems
and other relevant systems. The remaining steps in the Company's plan for the
year 2000 include continued testing of selected systems/equipment to ensure that
the remediation is successful.


                                       5
<PAGE>

Management believes that the cost of its Year 2000 identification, testing and
remediation will not have a material impact on the Company's financial
statements.

The Company is in the process of mailing letters to its significant vendors and
service providers to determine the extent Year 2000 will have on their ability
to continue to supply the Company with goods and services. Based on the goods
(primarily food, beverage and retail items) purchased by the Company, the
Company does not expect Year 2000 to have a material impact on its vendors.
Completion of verifying vendor readiness is proceeding.

         RISK AND CONTINGENCY PLAN

Management of the Company believes it has an effective program in place to
resolve the Year 2000 Issue in a timely manner. As noted above, the Company
has not completed all necessary phases of its plans for Year 2000. The most
likely worst case scenarios would include failure of a computer system or
equipment resulting in termination of or diminished service to customers. If
the Company's vendors or suppliers of the Company's necessary power, gas,
water, and telecommunications services fail, the Company would be unable to
provide certain services to its customers. In addition, disruptions in the
economy generally resulting from Year 2000 issues could materially and
adversely affect the Company.

The Company maintains contingency plans in its normal course of business
designed to be deployed in the event of various potential business
interruptions. These generally include manual workarounds and adjusting
staffing. The Company currently has no contingency plans in place should it fail
to complete all phases of its program for addressing the Year 2000 Issue. The
Company plans to evaluate the status of its program for addressing the Year 2000
Issue in mid-1999 and to determine at that time whether a more concrete
contingency plan is necessary.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements herein constitute "forward-looking statements." Such
forward-looking statements include the discussions of the business strategies of
the Company and expectations concerning future operations, margins,
profitability, liquidity, capital expenditures and capital resources. Although
management believes that the expectations in such forward-looking statements are
reasonable, it can give no assurance that any forward-looking statements will
prove to be correct. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown
risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause the actual results,
performance or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any
future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among others, the risks
associated with new construction, competition and other planned construction in
Las Vegas, government regulation related to the gaming industry, uncertainty of
casino customer spending and vacationing in casino resorts in Las Vegas,
occupancy rates and average room rates in Las Vegas, the popularity of Las Vegas
as a convention and trade show destination, the completion of infrastructure
improvements in Las Vegas, and general economic and business conditions that may
affect levels of disposable income and pricing of hotel rooms. For more
information regarding risks inherent in an investment in the Company, see the
section "Business - Rick Factors" in our annual Report on Form 10-K filed on
February 26, 1999.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 1999 AND 1998

NET REVENUES AND OPERATING INCOME. Net revenues increased 1.1% for the three
months ended May 31, 1999 to $20.8 million compared to $20.5 million for the
corresponding period of the prior year. The increase in revenues is primarily
attributable to increased hotel revenue of $0.7 million, or 19.8% related to 21
days of revenue from the


                                       6

additional rooms brought about by the Expansion. Operating income decreased
111.2% for the three months ended May 31, 1999 to an operating loss of $0.5
million compared to an operating profit of $4.5 million for the corresponding
period of the prior year, primarily as a result of the write off of $4.5 million
in pre-opening expenses.

CASINO. Casino revenues decreased 4.7% for the three months ended May 31,
1999 to $9.3 million compared to $9.7 million for the corresponding period of
the prior year. The decrease is primarily due to decreased slot revenue of
$0.6 million to $3.6 million compared to $4.2 million for the corresponding
period of the prior year, offset by increased table games revenue of $0.2
million to $5.7 million compared to $5.5 million for the corresponding period
of the prior year. Slot coin in decreased 8.9% to $65.7 million compared to
$72.1 million for the corresponding period of the prior year. Management
believes the opening of new casinos in Las Vegas coupled with the
construction disruption and lack of amenities (primarily restaurants) prior
to the Expansion resulted in less slot play. Conversely, table games drop
increased 25.2% to $42.9 million compared to $34.3 million for the
corresponding period in the prior year due to the increase in the number of
table games. Table games hold percentage decreased to 13.3% compared to
16.2% in the corresponding period of the prior year. Table games revenue
increased 2.7%, as a result of the increase in the number of table games and
the decrease in the hold percentage. Casino departmental income decreased
10.2% for the three months ended May 31, 1999 to $4.3 million from $4.8
million, primarily as a result of the decreased revenues. Casino departmental
income as a percentage of casino revenues decreased to 46.7% in 1999 from
49.6% in 1998, primarily as a result of the decreased revenues.

LODGING. Lodging revenues increased 19.8% for the three months ended May 31,
1999 to $4.2 million from $3.5 million for the corresponding period of the prior
year. The increase is primarily attributed to revenue generated from the
additional 318 hotel rooms, which were open from May 10, 1999 through the end of
the quarter. The ADR for the three months ended May 31, 1999 was $105.80, up
1.7% from $104.04 for the corresponding period of the prior year. Hotel
occupancy was 95.6%, down from 100%. Lodging departmental income increased 24.6%
for the three months ended May 31, 1999 to $3.0 million from $2.4 million,
primarily as a result of the increased revenues. Lodging departmental income as
a percentage of Lodging revenues increased to 72.4% in 1999 from 69.6% in 1998.

FOOD AND BEVERAGE. Food and Beverage revenues increased 4.8% for the three
months ended May 31, 1999 to $5.3 million from $5.0 million for the
corresponding period of the prior year. The increase was related to revenues
from the new restaurants which opened during May 1999 as a result of the
Expansion. Food and Beverage departmental income decreased 9.9% for the three
months ended May 31, 1999 to $1.9 million from $2.1 million, as a result of
increased costs associated with operating the new restaurants coupled with a
decrease in higher margin banquet business. Food and Beverage departmental
income as a percentage of revenues dropped to 36.7% in 1999 from 42.7% in
1998, primarily as a result of the higher operating costs.

RETAIL. Retail revenues decreased 3.2% for the three months ended May 31,
1999 to $3.1 million from $3.2 million for the corresponding period of the
prior year. Management believes the decrease is primarily attributable to a
diluted retail market from increased retail competition coupled with the
construction disruption. Retail departmental income decreased 1.5% for the
three months ended May 31, 1999 to $1.65 million from $1.68 million, as a
result of the decreased revenues. Retail departmental income as a percentage
of Retail revenues increased slightly to 54.1% in 1999 from 53.1% in 1998, as
a result of managing retail expenses to the reduction in revenues.

MARKETING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Marketing, General and Administrative
expenses remained at $4.0 million for the three months ended May 31, 1999.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and Amortization expense increased
to $1.6 million for the three months ended May 31, 1999 from $1.4 million for
the corresponding period of the prior year.

PRE-OPENING EXPENSE. The Company recorded a pre-opening expense of $4.5 million
associated with the opening of the Expansion.

INCOME TAXES. No income tax benefit was recorded in the quarter ended May 31,
1999, as a valuation allowance has been established due to the Company's
accumulated losses.

EXTRAORDINARY LOSS. In connection with securing expansion financing on March 23,
1998, the Company wrote off $3.5 million in unamortized loan fee costs
associated with the retirement of the Prior Credit Facility for the quarter
ended May 31, 1998.

NET INCOME. As a result of the factors described above, the Company recorded a
net loss for the three months ended May 31, 1999 of $3.2 million compared to a
net loss of $1.0 million for the corresponding period of the prior year.


SIX MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 1999 AND 1998

NET REVENUES AND OPERATING INCOME. Net revenues decreased 4.5% for the six
months ended May 31, 1999 to $38.2 million compared to $40.0 million for the
corresponding period of the prior year. The decrease in revenues is primarily
attributable to decreased casino revenue of 10.4% and decreased retail
revenue of 7.3%. Operating income decreased 78.2% for the six months ended
May 31, 1999 to $1.6 million compared to $7.5 million for the corresponding
period of the prior year, primarily as a result of the write off of $4.5
million in pre-opening expenses and the decreased revenues.

CASINO. Casino revenues decreased 10.4% for the six months ended May 31, 1999 to
$17.7 million compared to $19.8 million for the corresponding period of the
prior year. The decrease is primarily due to decreased table game revenue to
$11.1 million from $11.8 million and decreased slot revenue to $6.4 million
compared to $7.6 million for the corresponding period of the prior year. Table
games revenue decreased directly as a result of lower hold percentage of 13.9%
compared to 17.2% in the corresponding period of the prior year. Table games
drop increased 15.5% to $79.4 million compared to $68.7 million for the
corresponding period in the prior year due to the increase in the number of
table games. Management believes slot revenues decreased as a result of the
opening of new casinos in Las Vegas coupled with the construction disruption and
lack of amenities (primarily restaurants) prior to the Expansion. Casino
departmental income decreased 19.1% for the six months ended May 31, 1999 to
$8.1 million from $10.0 million, primarily as a result of the decreased
revenues. Casino departmental income as a percentage of casino revenues
decreased to 45.8% in 1999 from 50.7% in 1998, primarily as a result of the
decreased revenues.

LODGING. Lodging revenues increased 8.2% for the six months ended May 31, 1999
to $7.1 million from $6.6 million for the corresponding period of the prior
year. The increase is primarily attributed to revenue generated from the
additional 318 hotel rooms which were open from May 10, 1999 through the end of
the period. The ADR for the six months ended May 31, 1999 was $100.56, up 1.7%
from $98.87 for the corresponding period of the prior year. Hotel occupancy was
95.2%, down from 100%. Lodging departmental income increased 8.8% for the six
months ended May 31, 1999 to $5.0 million from $4.6 million primarily as a
result of the increased revenues. Lodging departmental income as a percentage of
Lodging revenues increased to 70.5% in 1999 from 70.1% in 1998.

FOOD AND BEVERAGE. Food and Beverage revenues increased 1.8% for the six
months ended May 31, 1999 to $9.4 million from $9.3 million for the
corresponding period of the prior year. The increase was related to revenues
from the new restaurants which opened during May 1999. Food and Beverage
departmental income decreased 11.9% for the six months ended May 31, 1999 to
$3.4 million from $3.9 million, as a result of increased costs associated
with operating the new restaurants coupled with a decrease in higher margin
banquet business. Food and Beverage departmental income as a percentage of
revenues dropped to 36.0% in 1999 from 41.6% in 1998, primarily as a result
of the increased operating costs.

<PAGE>

RETAIL. Retail revenues decreased 7.3% for the six months ended May 31, 1999
to $5.9 million from $6.4 million for the corresponding period of the prior
year. Management believes the decrease is primarily attributable to a diluted
retail market from increased retail competition coupled with the construction
disruption. Retail departmental income decreased 5.0% for the six months
ended May 31, 1999 to $3.2 million from $3.4 million, as a result of the
decreased revenues. Retail departmental income as a percentage of Retail
revenues increased slightly to 54.2% in 1999 from 52.9% in 1998, as a result
of managing retail expenses to the reduction in revenues.

MARKETING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE. Marketing, General and Administrative
expenses decreased 13.6% for the six months ended May 31, 1999 to $7.8 million
from $9.2 million for the corresponding period of the prior year. The decrease
is primarily attributable to the costs associated with hosting The Rolling
Stones event of approximately $1.1 million during the first quarter of 1998.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and Amortization expense increased
to $3.2 million for the six months ended May 31, 1999 from $2.8 million for the
corresponding period of the prior year.

PRE-OPENING EXPENSE. The Company recorded a pre-opening expense of $4.5 million
associated with the opening of the Expansion during the second quarter of 1999.

NET INTEREST EXPENSE. Net Interest Expense remained at $5.2 million for the six
months ended May 31, 1999.

INCOME TAXES. No income tax benefit was recorded in the quarter ended May 31,
1999, as a valuation allowance has been established due to the Company's
accumulated losses.

EXTRAORDINARY LOSS. In connection with securing expansion financing on March 23,
1998, the Company wrote off $3.5 million in unamortized loan fee costs
associated with the retirement of the Prior Credit Facility for the quarter
ended May 31, 1998.

NET INCOME. As a result of the factors described above, the Company recorded a
net loss for the six months ended May 31, 1999 of $3.6 million compared to net
loss of $0.7 million for the corresponding period of the prior year.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


     For the six months ended May 31, 1999, the Company's principal source of
funds was net financing activities of approximately $55.0 million. The
primary use of funds was the payment of expansion and maintenance capital
expenditures of $56.5 million. As of May 31, 1999 the Company had cash and
cash equivalents of $4.6 million. The Company believes that its current cash
balances, funds available ($11.5 million) under the $77.0 million New Credit
Facility, cash flow from operations, and other sources of cash will be
sufficient to provide operating liquidity. However, no assurances can be
given with respect to the availability or sufficiency of such amounts.

                                OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     On January 5, 1998, Hard Rock Cafe International (USA) Inc. (f/k/a Rank
Licensing, Inc.), a subsidiary of Rank International plc, (the "Plaintiff"),
filed an amended complaint in the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York against Peter A. Morton and the Company. The
Plaintiff contends that the reservation and use by Mr. Morton and the Company
of the internet domain names "hardrock.com" and "hardrockhotel.com" (the
"Domain Names"), and the use of certain marks and logos (the "Logos") in, and
in connection with merchandise offered on, internet websites operated under
the Domain Names, violate terms of certain agreements with Mr. Morton and
Federal and state trademark and unfair competition law. The Plaintiff seeks
an injunction against the use of the Domain Names and the Logos by Mr. Morton
and the Company, an order requiring Mr. Morton and the Company to assign the
Domain Names to the Plaintiff, and over $100 million in damages. During the
course of litigation, Mr. Morton and the Company transferred the domain name
"hardrock.com" to the Plaintiff. On June 1, 1999, the court issued a ruling
that the Company owes no money damages, the Company can continue to use the
domain name "hardrockhotel.com," and that the Company can use the Logos in
connection with merchandising within designated territories if it can
demonstrate to the Court its ability to do so without doing so in restricted
territories. The Company has ceased using the Logos in connection with
internet merchandising while it seeks to have the territorial limitation
removed. Through May 31, 1999, the Company has incurred $1.5 million in legal
fees in defense of this suit which was charged to general and administrative
expenses on the Statement of Operations during fiscal year 1998.

     Additionally, the Company is a defendant in various lawsuits relating to
routine matters incidental to its business. Management does not believe that the
outcome of any such litigation, in the aggregate, will have a material adverse
effect on the Company.
